Obsidian Lens is a Fuser shader pipeline that transforms flat PNG logos into a volumetric "liquid obsidian" with a deep black base.
By using faux normal mapping for 3D beveling and a dynamic mask to isolate two-tone gradients, it creates a premium material effect instead of a cheap "rainbow flood." It’s a clean, high-impact tool for anyone needing a sharp Web3 aesthetic and a "heavy" visual identity.
this is such a cool effect!
Nice work!
Nice.
Thank you for sharing!

Love this!
The etched blue ink treatment turns a postcard shot into something that feels printed. It works especially well on the pagoda and Rio frames, and doing it all inside Figma is a good reminder of how far that tool stretches.

I recently watched The Moment, the Charli xcx mockumentary. I really liked the strobing typography layered over the footage, so I tried recreating it for the Contra × @Invideo challenge.
Everything was done directly in the new invideo Editor timeline. Although, to be fair, Agent Two did most of the work. I supplied the assets and creative brief, then watched it go.
And it did a freaking good job. Not perfect on the first try, but the fixes only needed a conversation in chat.
